I'll let it slide, only because you are Swedish which is basically Korean but with furniture thats a pain in the ass to assemble.

VortiX actually had an exam this evening and just came home a couple of minutes ago. We announced this season on rather short notice and VortiX contacted me about these conflicting dates as soon as he could. As we had already announced all groups there was no room to postpone the group to another day. That's why VortiX and monchi played on Sunday already and we put VortiX' second match as late as possible. For the remaining two groups we will keep the usual match order of Winner's Match, Loser's Match, Final Match and stick to all matches being live (with 5 minutes stream delay). | ||

Yeah, but Idra had good results before Nerchio did long ago (2010-2011), back when some people thought Nerchio was even a hacker because he never showed up at LANs. Nerchio also used to play random. | ||

Well to be fair, most of what you will hear against gypsies coming from Romanians is almost guaranteed to be justified (I would know..)... unless they're going batshit "gypsies should be exterminated from the face of the planet" type of crazy.

If anything, all it means is that IdrA got his fame from beating players who weren't as good, since the play wasn't as developed back then. Which is also very ironic, because IdrA did well when people were cheesy and all-innish (which he stated so many times he despises), yet nowadays when most play is fairly macro-oriented he hasn't shown anything decent in a long while.  | ||

Obviously colossus can get attacked by air, and it likely wouldn't turn out well for... not zerg, but I really just want to see it in a game. Colossus is horrible easymode unit design and no other unit should ever mimic it. Ultras should require at least some skill to set up an engagement. | ||

Great job respecting the players circumstances and helping Vortix out, thanks Shawn! | ||

Thanks for the info, but most are busy talking about Idra anyways; no clue why  | ||

Nope, still full time. That's also the main reason why he didn't accept the Code S invite. | ||

No, never, that was only MaNa. And good job, Shawn, glad you managed to find a solution. I just hope VortiX is kinda prepared and warmed up enough. | ||

It's not an argument, it's just an observation. Idra had his time, and Nerchio had his. But I would also be careful about saying that results back then were less valid. Remember, Idra was doing well with range 3 queens and slower overlords. He even made Ro8 GSL with maps like Xel Naga Caverns and Jungle Basin :p | ||
